Also there are new exciting beers (those following these posts for a while will have noticed that the word 'beer' is always preceded by 'exciting')
From Red Duck (craft brewers from Ballarat) we have a Hoppy Amber (not very hoppy but a nice amber), the Pale Rider - an interesting light flavoured pale ale - and the best of the three, The Tiger, a strong pale ale with quite some character.
From Little Creatures a Single Batch Red Indian Pale Ale, well they call it an IPA but it's more a red ale with a blush of hops, and Bostons Mill Pale Ale, an American style pale ale with a nice amount of hoppiness. Who would have thought that not only would America become the leader of the craft brewing movement but that Australian brewers would start imitating not only their style but their labelling? Life is full of surprises.
